This program guide, containing program listings for the month of February , 1972, is not sold, it is given, free of charge, t o the s ubscribers and supporters of KRAB. We empha­ size the fact that those w~o subscribe aren't paying for the program guide, but paying for KRAB. We are not publIshers, after all, but broadcasters , and we need the continued financial (and spiritual) support of the community if we are going to continue on the air. SUbSCliption rates to KRAB are essentially whatever you want to give, be it five cents or five million'big ones. We do set subscription rates, however, mostly because people seem to want them. The average yearly subscription is $25 , payable in one hunk, or a bit at a time. The minimum yearly rate IS $15, or $5 every four months. Any contribution is tax deductible, and as a bonus for the subscription to KRAB you receive a program guide' each month, just like this one, that natters on about money when what you really want to know is what's on Thursday. KRAB f. m. 9029 Roosevelt Way N.E. Seattle, Washington 98115 LA 2-5111 20,000 Watts, e.r.p. 10 7.7 dial-wi se KRAB is an affiliate of the KRAB Nebula Network, National Public Radio, and the Interna­ tio r.~~ /»let aphysical Cartel. If yo ur name is circled in red on the back cover of this guide, it means your sub;;crip­ tion has expired, and unless that old renewal arrives soon, the March program guide wi ll not be sent to you. We hope you'll renew your subscription, because right now, KRAB is beginning the biggest period of expansion in its history, both in terms of pro­ gramming, production and facilities. This major expansion is costly but essential to the futur e well-being of KRAB. We need, and will continue to need the support of our current subscribers and all those who will learn of the station in the futurp.. Please s tay with us , and we hope to make your continued interest and support worthwhile . PLANNING ON MOV ING? Well, have a dandy time, but before you go, let us know your change of address so our cr ew of trained thieves can em?ty out your house while every­ thing is still in cardboard boxes. Seriously though, if you let us know when yo u're mo ving and whe re you're going, I,e can make sure those kindly government employees at the post office don't throw your guide away but spirit it out to the correct new lo­ cation. If they tell you they will just naturally forward all your mail, THEY ARE LYING. Y0U have to let us know so we can change your address card. AND, if you're moving out of the sandy hills of the KRAB coverage area, you might wish to have your subscription changed to the listener-supported (or almost) in your new homeland . Thus, if you're going to any of the following areas, let us know. Portland, San Francisco, Los Gatos, San Jose, Houston, St. Louis, New York City, or Yaller Springs, Ohio. .. The other day , as the morning repeat crew was chopping Phil Munger from the microphone wi th an ice ax, someone remarked that it wou ld be nice if I,e had another electric heat­ er or t wo. Our converted doughnut shop of a radio station hasn't had central heating since they removed the deep fat fryer, you see, and thus it occasionally gets a bit nippy in the station. The occasions when this happens are generally the months of October through April. If you have a heater around that you're not using, there are some mighty chilly fol ks up at KRAB that would love getting toasty again. 3 JACK STRAW MEMORIAL FOUNDATION BOARD OF TRUSTEES, MONTHLY MEETING 1-8-72 (As a subscriber or supporter of KRAB, you are a member of the Jack Straw ~1emorial Foundation, the non-profit organization that owns KRAB and KBOO. In an effort t o make the Foundation members more aware of the doings of their elected board, we hope to publish in each monthly program guide highlights of the past board meeting. These no tes con cerning board meetings are not meant to serve as minutes of the meeting, but. merely as a general synopsis of what occured. The board meeting reported below lasted over four hours , so naturally much more was said than is reported here. Information from the meetings is deliberately omitted only when the Board i s called into executive session or the material is routine .) Trustees present were Byron Coney, Mike Duffy, Bob Friede , He len Norton , Nancy Keith, Gary Margason , Ben Dawson, Steve Mena~ian and Greg Palmer. After some discussion, the Board voted to reject the proposal of a local commercial broadcaster to produce a daily news program on KRAB as an experiment prior to future broadcast on a commercial outlet. The Board moved, on reccomendation from the KRAB managt!r, that all National Public Radio live feeds, if broadcast live, be put on some k:nd of tape-delay basis for au­ dition purposes, until NPR c larifies their standards regarding suitability of mater­ ial for broadcast. This came as a result of the live coverage of the Philadelphia convention of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, carried Decem­ ber 26 through December 30. Also in regard to the broadcast of that convention, the KRAB manager was instructed to wri te NPR programming offi ci als commending the network for carrying the programs, but strongly objecting to aspects of the coverage, i.e., repeated interruptions by the reporters, station breaks where not requi red, tinny electronic music, etc. Some of the letters from KRAB listeners stating these objections will be quoted. The majority of the board meeting concerned proposed changes in the by-laws of the Foundation. Mos t changes centered on the e lection procedures, by which three board members are e l ect ed t o a three year term annually by the general Foundation. Some of the proposals are: 1. Res tricting station staff members from serving on the Board. 2. Terminating elections entirely and returning to the previous system of a sel f ­ perpetuating board (or equival ent) 3 . El ecting Board members to represent various 'constituents; i .e., a member, or members elected only by the staff and volunteers of each station; a member, or mem­ bers elected solely by the subscribers to each station, etc. The number of Board members elected in this way , and the method of determining other members of the Board, 'vas not determined. With the next general election scheduled for this March, it was felt that any re­ vi sions in election procedures must be made at the next board meeting, in February . Because this is an important issue , affecting the general membership of the Foundation, it was felt that the general membership shoul d be invited to attend that meeting i f they wish , and express their thoughts on this issue. No tice will be given in both the KRAB and KBOO program guides as to the time and p l ace of the meeting (see below). Finally, it was generally fe It that the past method of informing the voters as to the qualifications and ideas of nominees for the Board left a great deallto be desired. Suggestions to correct this included having nominees do commentaries, sending out longer or at least more involved statements from the nominees with the ballots. 111e next meeting of the BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE JACK STRAW MEMORIAL FOUNDATION WILL BE HELD SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 12, AT 9 :30 A.M. AT THE HOME OF BEN DAWSON, 4319 THACKERAY PLA CE N.E. llecause we have no idea how many are p lanning on attending this me eting, wo uld those who are i-lease contact Greg Palmer at KRAB, just in case the number is so large a more accomodati ng meeting place must be found. 4 There once was a rabbit of particularly rakish cast; his tail was lush, round and colorless clear to the roots , his ears the purest pink to windward, the brightest white to leeward. His fine, soft coat was made ever more astonishing by the red and gold highlights a ccentuating his lithe, supple form. As if such features were not enonph, his face was perfection itself, combining the devilishly quizzical nature of his bright pink eyes (they glowed in the dark) with the strong, sugar-cube presence of his buck teeth, topped by extremely long .

  • ARSC Journal
    A Discography of the Choral Symphony by J. F. Weber In previous issues of this Journal (XV:2-3; XVI:l-2), an effort was made to compile parts of a composer discography in depth rather than breadth. This one started in a similar vein with the realization that SO CDs of the Beethoven Ninth Symphony had been released (the total is now over 701). This should have been no surprise, for writers have stated that the playing time of the CD was designed to accommodate this work. After eighteen months' effort, a reasonably complete discography of the work has emerged. The wonder is that it took so long to collect a body of information (especially the full names of the vocalists) that had already been published in various places at various times. The Japanese discographers had made a good start, and some of their data would have been difficult to find otherwise, but quite a few corrections and additions have been made and some recording dates have been obtained that seem to have remained 1.Dlpublished so far. The first point to notice is that six versions of the Ninth didn't appear on the expected single CD. Bl:lhm (118) and Solti (96) exceeded the 75 minutes generally assumed (until recently) to be the maximum CD playing time, but Walter (37), Kegel (126), Mehta (127), and Thomas (130) were not so burdened and have been reissued on single CDs since the first CD release. On the other hand, the rather short Leibowitz (76), Toscanini (11), and Busch (25) versions have recently been issued with fillers.

  • Tracing the Development of Extended Vocal Techniques in Twentieth-Century America
    CRUMP, MELANIE AUSTIN. D.M.A. When Words Are Not Enough: Tracing the Development of Extended Vocal Techniques in Twentieth-Century America. (2008) Directed by Mr. David Holley, 93 pp. Although multiple books and articles expound upon the musical culture and progress of American classical, popular and folk music in the United States, there are no publications that investigate the development of extended vocal techniques (EVTs) throughout twentieth-century American music. Scholarly interest in the contemporary music scene of the United States abounds, but few sources provide information on the exploitation of the human voice for its unique sonic capabilities. This document seeks to establish links and connections between musical trends, major artistic movements, and the global politics that shaped Western art music, with those composers utilizing EVTs in the United States, for the purpose of generating a clearer musicological picture of EVTs as a practice of twentieth-century vocal music. As demonstrated in the connecting of musicological dots found in primary and secondary historical documents, composer and performer studies, and musical scores, the study explores the history of extended vocal techniques and the culture in which they flourished. WHEN WORDS ARE NOT ENOUGH: TRACING THE DEVELOPMENT OF EXTENDED VOCAL TECHNIQUES IN TWENTIETH-CENTURY AMERICA by Melanie Austin Crump A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of The Graduate School at The University of North Carolina at Greensboro in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts Greensboro 2008 Approved by ___________________________________ Committee Chair To Dr. Robert Wells, Mr. Randall Outland and my husband, Scott Watson Crump ii APPROVAL PAGE This dissertation has been approved by the following committee of the Faculty of The School of Music at The University of North Carolina at Greensboro.

  • Kerstin Meyer (1928-2020)
    In memoriam: Kerstin Meyer (1928-2020) Kerstin Meyer var en av de spännande unga sångare som inledde en internationell karriär i Stockholm i början av 50-talet. En påfallande vacker kvinna och en utomordentlig musiker blev hon snart en remarkabel musikdramatisk artist på världens operascener. Meyer erövrade en stor och mångskiftande repertoar från barockopera över Wagner, Verdi och Richard Strauss till moderna verk, där hon uruppförde en rad krävande roller. Hennes röst var en mörkt färgad mezzosopran som kunde expandera både lyriskt och dramatiskt. Efter debuten som 24-åring på Kungliga Operan som Azucena i Trubaduren 1952 (alltså som mor till den 48-årige hjältetenorenSet Svanholm!) sågs hon uppenbarligen som en ny altsångerska. Jordgudinnan Erda i Nibelungens ring blev hennes nästa större uppgift. Men om mezzosopranen Meyer på höjdpunkten av sin karriär kunde ha svårigheter med vissa höjdtoner som Eboli i Don Carlos kastade hon många år senare höga C omkring sig som Adalgisa i Norma. Meyer började tidigt. Född 1928 kom hon in på Musikaliska Akademins konservatorium som nittonåring och därefter Operaskolan. Bland hennes första lärare fanns Arne Sunnegårdh och den legendariska ryska koloratursopranen Andrejeva von Skilondz. Under sin internationella karriär studerade hon vidare för Pola Novikova och Vera Rosza. Redan i september 1951 stod hon på scenen i oktetten av valkyrior vid Operans gästspel medValkyrian i Köpenhamn och i december samma år sjöng hon altpartiet Messiasi vid Operans traditionella uppförande av Händels oratorium i Storkyrkan. Efter sina debuter studerade hon vidare i Italien. Tillbaka på Operan gjorde hon 1953 den kvinnliga titelrollen i Simson och Delila och fick 1954 sitt definitiva genombrott med titelrollen iCarmen i en ny, oerhört uppmärksammad uppsättning av Göran Gentele.

Yet her equally wide influence on the world of music was largely unrecognized until 1992, when the late Carlton Lowenberg published his groundbreaking study Musicians Wrestle Everywhere: Emily Dickinson and Music (Fallen Leaf Press), an examination of Dickinson's involvement in the music of her time, and a "detailed inventory" of 1,615 musical settings of her poems. The result is a survey of an important segment of twentieth-century music. In the years since Lowenberg's inventory appeared, the number of Dickinson settings is estimated to have more than doubled, and a large number of them have been performed and recorded. One critic has described Dickinson as "the darling of modern composers."1 The intriguing question of why this should be so has been answered in many ways by composers and others.

  • A Collection of Stan Ruttenberg's Reviews of Mahler Recordings From
    A collection of Stan Ruttenberg’s Reviews of Mahler Recordings from the Archives Of the Colorado MahlerFest (Symphonies 3 through 7 and Kindertotenlieder) Colorado MahlerFest XIII Recordings of the Mahler Third Symphony Of the fifty recordings listed in Peter Fülöp’s monumental discography (up to 1955, and many more have been added since then), I review here fifteen at my disposal, leaving out two by Boulez and one by Scherchen as not as worthy as the others. All of these fifteen are recommendable, all with fine points, all with some or more weaknesses. I cannot rank them in any numerical order, but I can say that there are four which I would rather hear more than the others — my desert island choices. I am glad to have the others for their own particular merits. Getting ready for MFest XIII we discovered that the matter of score versions and parts is complex. I use the Dover score, no date but attributed to Universal Edition; my guess this is an early version. The Kalmus edition is copied from who knows which published version. Then there is the “Critical Edition,” prepared by the Mahler Gesellschaft, Vienna. I can find two major discrepancies between the Dover/Universal and the Critical (I) the lack of horns at RN25-5, doubling the string riff and (ii) only two harp glissandi at the middle of RN28, whereas the Critical has three. Our first horn found another. Both the Dover and Critical have the horn doublings, written ff at RN 67, but only a few conductors observe them.
